Swift version of Ronak's answer

import MobileCoreServices
let pasteboard = UIPasteboard.general
let data = UIPasteboard.general.data(forPasteboardType: kUTTypeQuickTimeMovie as String)

See Objective-C code below, hope you can convert it to swift:

APIs for reading data from Pasteboard.

//returns data 
- (NSData *)dataForPasteboardType:(NSString *)pasteboardType;

//returns value
- (id)valueForPasteboardType:(NSString *)pasteboardType;

Example:

UIPasteboard * pasteboard=[UIPasteboard generalPasteboard];

NSData * data = [pasteboard dataForPasteboardType:(NSString*)kUTTypeVideo];
